These shop photos have a small sampling of some of the new objects for your consideration.
This is one large wall panel. It dates from the late 18th to early 19th centuries and features finely reeded pilasters with acanthus capitals. A small carved angel head with wings forms the keystone of the arch just below a robust crown with dentil molding. Click on images to enlarge.
The architectural panel is European and measures over six feet long. It would make a great headboard or a focal point for a room. On the far right of the French bamboo hall-tree is a wonderful 1920s screen wire lamp shade signed by the Rembrandt Lamp Co.
Talk about a unique assortment of knives and daggers. Bowie knives with antler handles are shown on the shelf. A Persian Katar from the 19th century, hangs in the middle of the three daggers on the wall. To the right of the Katar is an Italian 16th century left-handed dagger with a forged iron head on its pommel. All of these weapons have distinctly different design elements that make them interesting and yet a strong sculptural quality runs through all of them. The carved and polychromed masks that are hanging above the daggers are believed to be Tibetan and date to the early 20th century.
Two different generations of little girls played with these toys. The graniteware dates from the 1890s to 1910. The cast metal dollhouse furniture is from the 1930s. Most of the furniture was made by “Arcade” a toy company that was located in Freeport, Illinois. These photos help show the diversity of the material coming into the shop as well as the quantity. Although there is always too much inventory coming into the shop to ever get it photographed before it all sells. If you are in the St. Louis area please be sure and look us up. Remember Antiques are the highest form of recycling. I have a house full of recycled furniture and objects and would not have it any other way. Click on images to enlarge.
